Yea. UK. Not as competitive as Ole Miss, but probably just as much as UT and USC. I'm a guy, by the way, so none of that was from first hand experience as far as rush goes. Just from girls I know.

UK counts, it's not as competitive but I'd say still pretty tough for sororities there.

There were actually two quotas this year. Freshmen quota of 84 and upperclassmen quota of 9 Not all chapters took upperclassmen. So I guess technically you could say freshmen quota was 84 and the optional upperclassmen total was 9. Obviously the two combined equal 93.

KD has their new members announced in the paper today, first one I have seen so far:
http://issuu.com/dailymississippian/...pian10282010/3

Then it should open to the page with the ad on the right hand side.

Nope. I've never seen a fraternity do this. But if they do I'll be sure to post it.

I might be missing something, but... what's the point of an optional upperclassman quota - don't they have the option of taking upperclassmen anyway? Seems odd to put an arbitrary number on it... again, I might be not fully understanding something...

If you have upperclass. quota, you can take the upperclassmen without them taking a spot in regular quota (which could be filled by a freshman).

Example: Let's say you go to a school where everyone usually only takes freshmen.

If quota is 90, and you want to take on 5 upperclassmen, you have 85 freshmen and 5 upper. So you aren't going to take them, because they take away from the number of freshmen you'd have.

Now if the same school has an upperclass. quota of 5, you can take quota of 90 freshmen AND your 5 upperclassmen.

Make sense?
